Damn Small Linux is a business card size (50MB) bootable Live CD Linux distribution. Despite its minuscule size it strives to have a functional and easy to use desktop. Why? Because having a working Linux desktop on a 50 mb bootable business card CD is just too cool not to do. -------------- This might be able to do what you want.
